C3 Xuanyuan Zhen

"Welcome back!"

On top of a mountain peak within the Xuanyuan Dynasty realm, a man dressed in white sat cross-legged on the ground with an ancient guqin on his leg. In his slender right hand was a blood-red jade pendant, which was currently emitting a gentle, blood-colored light.

Young Lord laughed?

The two servants at the side looked at each other, shock could be seen in each other's eyes. Did their Young Lord also know how to laugh? In their memories, the Young Lord was so handsome that it made the heavens furious and people furious. Who knew how many people were attracted to him, but he was always like a man who didn't care for the world. He never showed any expression other than indifference, but now he actually smiled, and his smile was even filled with an unmistakable gentleness.

The two of them rubbed their eyes foolishly at the same time. Seeing that Xuanyuan Zhen was still smiling, they were both scared, Young Lord couldn't be sick, right?

"Young Lord, are … are you alright?"

After a moment, one of them bravely stepped forward and asked.

"No problem, prepare to return to the Imperial City."

Xuanyuan Zhen turned around and glanced at him. His expression froze and the gentleness disappeared from his face. What replaced it was an undisguised indifference and indifference. There was not a single ripple on his handsome face at all.

"You're going back now? Wasn't the Young Lord looking for someone? And your body, Young Lord … "

"He's already back. With his personality, I believe that his Xuanyuan Dynasty will be overturned very soon."

Xuanyuan Zhen put away the zither and unconsciously revealed a doting and expectant expression. The next second, his tall and slender body disappeared from the summit of the mountain, leaving his two subordinates confused and confused.

Taoyuan Mountain Outside the Imperial City

In the past, there were many refined people who came to admire the flowers at the foot of the mountain, but today, the situation was somewhat different. Three days ago, the entire Peach Blossom Mountain was sealed up, because today, the emperor would bring a hundred officials, their families, as well as the princes and princesses of the imperial court over to admire the flowers.

"There's no need for the crown prince to attend to you. Go and take care of the various young masters and young ladies for me."

Around this time, the emperor's imperial carriage arrived at the flower viewing seats that were already set up at the foot of the mountain. The emperor waved his hand to dismiss the princes and princes who were waiting on him.

"Yes, Royal Father, your son will take his leave."

Xuanyuan Lan bowed respectfully, then turned around and left. He was wearing a light red palace uniform and had a unique cinnabar mark on his forehead. A woman who looked to be under 30 years old leaned over and held the emperor's arm: "Your Majesty, look, the Crown Prince is taking on more and more responsibility."

She was none other than Xuanyuan Lan's mufei, the current first rank concubine Noble Consort Xiao. The empress of Xuanyuan Dynasty had been depressed for many years because the crown prince had passed away before her, and the emperor Xuanyuan Chetian had not been able to reestablish himself. Noble Consort Xiao, who held the phoenix seal, was also the birth mother of the crown prince, and although she did not have the title of empress, she already had the power of a empress.

"That's right, your majesty. Look at your highness the crown prince, he's only sixteen years old and already has the bearing of an emperor. His cultivation level has also reached the Earth Core Stage, so he will definitely become even more prosperous in the future."

"It's not that we're boasting, it's that the crown prince's talent is top-notch in the entire Xuanyuan Dynasty."

"The Crown Prince's talent is not bad, but compared to Your Highness King Zhen, he's not that bad."

"That's true. With this old man's Mortal Core Stage, I can't even see clearly what kind of cultivation level Your Highness King Zhen is. He should at least be a Heavenly Core Stage cultivator."

"That's not it …"

It was unexpected that the topic of the ministers had shifted to Xuanyuan Zhen, the most mysterious and powerful person in Xuanyuan Dynasty, who rarely showed himself in public. Noble Consort Xiao, who had long envied Xuanyuan Zhen for being the favorite of the emperor, immediately felt embarrassed and almost swore at those old officials who were bragging about him.

"Speaking of King Zhen, I haven't seen him for the past year, right?"

Noble Consort Xiao gritted her teeth as she secretly ridiculed Xuanyuan Zhen for being unfilial and unfilial, and for never showing any respect to the Emperor.

How many people who were able to become emperors were fools?

"Zhen'er has been out training. The stronger he becomes, the more stable his Xuanyuan Dynasty will be."

Glancing indifferently at Noble Consort Xiao, the Emperor pushed away her hand without batting an eyelid and said, "Esteemed guests, please take your seats and admire the flowers. Young people should be left to their own devices. We don't have to divide the officials today, let's have a good time today."

"Thank you, your majesty."

Hearing this, all the officials cupped their fists and bowed as they took their seats.

On the other side, under the suggestion of Great General's Mansion's eldest son, Feng Jinyu, the royalty and the various families' young masters and mistresses decided to ride their horses up the mountain to admire the flowers. The large group of them quickly disappeared from the path up the mountain.

The entire mountain was filled with peach trees. It was said that some empress of Xuanyuan Dynasty loved peach blossoms, so in order to make the emperor happy, he had ordered people to plant peach blossoms all over the entire mountain.

"There seems to be a smell of blood in front."

When they arrived at the mountainside, Xuanyuan Lan, who was riding at the front, suddenly tightened his reins and stopped. Feng Jinyu, who followed closely behind, sneered and said with a puzzled look, "I think it came from the left side. I remember there's a place for the forest watchers to rest, right?"

"Let's go take a look."

As the crown prince, no matter what, it was impossible for Xuanyuan Lan to avoid them, not to mention that he had the royal family and all the young masters and mistresses of various families behind him.

Under the lead of Xuanyuan Lan and Feng Jinyu, the group of people turned their horses and headed towards the mountain road on the left.

"Phew!"

Moments later, Xuanyuan Lan suddenly tightened his reins. The BMW in the lead raised its front hooves high up, and the people following behind had no choice but to stop in a hurry.

"What are you doing? "Why did it suddenly stop …"

"Then what happened?"

"Who is that person?"

"Didn't Peach Blossom Mountain clear out three days ago? "How could there be a person …"

They could only see that the original house in the mountain had already collapsed, and the broken bricks and tiles were piled up with a body covered in blood. A corpse, which had been crushed to pieces, was revealed on the ground in front of them, and on top of the pile of people, there was even a white-clothed youth sitting cross-legged. No matter how they looked at this strange scene, even though they were not people who had seen a bloody scene, some of them still felt fear seep out of their bodies, and a chill went down their spines.

It's finally here!

The young man in white was none other than Feng Jinyan. When he opened his eyes and saw Feng Jinyu in front of him, a faint sneer emerged on his bloodied face.

"Eldest Young Master?" "Young master, save me … save me …"

"Help, help us …"

"Save me …"

At the same time, the guards with broken arms and the hulks who were castrated suddenly saw the arrival of Feng Jinyu and the others as they originally lost too much blood and had no chance of survival.

"You know him?"

Taking a deep look at the apathetic Feng Jinyan, Xuanyuan Lan turned his head towards Feng Jinyu along with the gaze of the guards with broken arms and frowned.

"I don't know him."

Suppressing the shock in his heart, Feng Jinyu glared at the armless guard who begged for mercy. He raised his eyes to look at Feng Jinyan who was sitting on the pile of people. He pretended to frown and think for a while before suddenly exclaiming: "Feng Jinyan? Why is it you? Why are you here? "

"What?" He is Feng Jinyan? "

"It can't be? Wasn't Feng Jinyan an idiot? No matter how you look at it, this person doesn't look like a fool, right? "

"Who knows? The City Lord has been guarding Yan City all year round. Feng Jinyan also stayed with him in Yan City, but his silly name was well-known throughout the Imperial City. Maybe it was intentional by someone."

"Speaking of which, I think I heard from my father that Great General's Mansion should originally have been inherited by the City Lord. It was only because Seventh Madam suddenly disappeared without reason that the City Lord angrily brought Feng Jinyan out of the Imperial City after being poisoned to a fool."

"Speaking of which, Feng Jinyan is fourteen now, right? If he's not an idiot, shouldn't he be married to the crown prince? "

"All of you, stop talking …"

The words "Feng Jinyan" instantly exploded among these young masters and mistresses. Who in the Imperial City didn't know that Feng Jinyan was a fool? Who didn't know that he was pointed out to the second prince as soon as he was born? In the past ten years, Feng Wanyang had never returned to the Imperial City, not even under the Emperor's orders, he had never paid any attention to him. Naturally, Feng Jinyan could not return, but now, he had appeared here alone, and was still in such a strange environment.

"Feng Jinyan?"

It was impossible for anyone with a foolish engagement partner to be happy, not to mention that he was the current crown prince, and the future emperor would definitely not accept a foolish child as his Crown Prince's consort. Even though Feng Jinyan seemed to be different from the rumors at this moment, Xuanyuan Lan still subconsciously felt displeased. He tightened his grip on the reins of the horse, and made up his mind to take this opportunity to break the engagement.
